Our coming event is just one month away, but we're not slouching! We're busting our backs to bring you a spectacular event. Here are some things that are worth noting for our coming event.

First,

S2 Games has been one of our biggest contributors and longest term sponsor. We have greatly appreciated their support the last two years. However all things must come to an end, and as such our sponsorship with S2 Games is ending. Thanks S2 Games for your help!

Second,

We have re-evaluated our coming event and are adjusting our ticket price to make the event more accessible to the public. To be specific, we are reducing prepay and at the door pricing. All of the people who have prepaid for this event will be given immediate partial refunds. If you have prepaid and you are having issues please contact BloodyIron immediately. We also have adjusted the ticket price for the console tournaments as we want them to be more accessible too.

Third,

Tournament adjustments. We are still finalizing certain elements of our tournaments. In summary they are:

Removing of Heroes of Newerth from our tournament line-up

Adjusting of the PC and Console tournament schedules to make them not over lap

Revisiting the Super Smash Brothers Melee ruleset

Adjusting prizing considering the change in ticket price

Fourth,

LANified!'s first Portal 2 Map making contest!

Just a few days ago, Portal 2 received an update so you can make maps in-game really easily, and share them with your friends even easier than that! So we're hosting a map making contest! From now till June 16th 2012 1200hrs (Noon Saturday, second event day) you will have plenty of time to make your best creation! We will be accepting ONE map entry per person. You must attend LANified! 11's BYOC LAN and submit it by Noon on Saturday to enter the contest. Judging will be done by LANified! Staff members. Methodology for judging is not yet finalized. What do you stand to win? A shiny new Trendnet TEW-680MB ! : TRENDnet | Products | 450Mbps Wireless N Adapters | TEW-680MB

But wait, there's more! We will be holding onto the top 3 maps we grade for an additional contest at the event. You will just have to wait and see what we do with them though.

We aren't just stopping with our Portal 2 map making contest. We will be bringing more casual challenges for the event, so keep your eyes peeled!

Fifth,

Our delicious concession is back again! There will be fresh, hot food on site again! If you haven't had the fortune of being at one of our events where we had our great concession, I feel bad for you. Delicious, nutritious, and oh so convenient. They also try to fill special requests too! Mac and Cheese + Chicken? Very yes!
